VisiWeb Data Management
VisiWeb ensures the best possible support for operational processes thanks to its wide range of functions. In its capacity as a data pool, VisiWeb supplies data to systems in vehicles as well as those at stops and stations. The user-friendly interface facilitates internal processes.
Studies have shown that passengers believe dynamic passenger information adds considerable value to a service. If passengers know how long they have to wait, then the waiting time as perceived in their own minds becomes considerably shorter. What we can take from this is that passengers need to be kept up to date on the latest developments at all times. To prevent them from having to cope with a torrent of information, however, information that is both targeted and effective is a must. VisiWeb Data Management is the right tool for the job. The VisiWeb Schedule Editor enables acquisition of timetable data and all parameters, while its standard interfaces also make it possible to obtain information from third-party systems.
Since it is linked to operation controls technology, VisiWeb obtains all of its information in real time, meaning that it knows exactly what is happening at all times. These details are then relayed to passengers instantly, whether they concern delays and the actual arrival time of the next train or bus at a stop, or are providing passengers in vehicles with real-time information about upcoming connections.
VisiWeb Data Management features all the key elements of a dynamic passenger information system:
Data
- Schedule data: Route data, timetable data, circulation data
- Real-time data: Arrival/departure, connections, reservations
- Statistical data: Utilization, video and diagnostic data
Functions
- Communication with vehicles, stations, and stops
- Communication with third-party systems (VDV 453,454/SIRI standard)
- Deriving real-time data based on comparisons of schedule data and the actual situation
- Forecasts for changes to timetables
- Preparation of data for output (visual and audible)
These fundamental elements offered by the data hub are what makes it possible to set up real-time information systems that guide passengers in the right direction, at the right time, and to the right mode of transport.
